DANGER:
•
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shocks or injury, please read and comply with all the safety
instructions and warning indications carefully. This machine has been designed to be safe when
it is used for cleaning in the manner specified. If damage to electrical or mechanical components
is found, the machine must be repaired at the relative authorised service centre or else at the
manufacturer before use, in order to prevent further damage to the machine or physical injury
to the user.
•
Before connecting the machine to the electricity socket, make sure the electrical information on
the plate corresponds to that of the mains supply. The machine must only be powered with
alternating current and with a voltage equal to that shown on the serial number plate.
•
The power supply cable outlet must have an earth connection in compliance with the regulatory
standards.
•
The cable for connecting to the mains that is supplied with the machine should be used for the
above-mentioned appliance and not for other appliances.
•
Before using, check for any damage on the connection cable and on the power plug. If the cable
is damaged, immediately contact a technician for restoring normal functioning.
•
Connect the appliance only to an electrical connection installed by an electrical installer in
conformity with IEC 60364-1.
•
Never touch the power plug with wet hands.
•
Make sure that the cable to the mains or the extension cable have not been damaged by having
been walked on, crushed, pulled or the like. Protect the cable from heat and from contact with
oils or sharp edges.
•
Regularly check that the cable connecting to the mains is not damaged, for example with signs
of ageing or cracks. If damage is found, the cable should be replaced before using the appliance
again.
•
Protection against splashes of water and the mechanical strength need to be ensured also after
any replacement of the joints of the power cable or the extension cable.
•
Do not clean the appliance with a hose or a jet of high pressure water (risk of short-circuit or
other electrical faults).
ATTENTION:
•
The procedure causes short-term reduction in voltage.
•
In unfavourable grid conditions the other appliances could be damaged.
•
This damage could occur if the grid impedance is less than 0.15Ω.
DANGER:
•
Never use with a damaged cable or plug. When removing from an electrical socket, pull the
plug and not the cable. Do not handle the plug or the machine with wet hands. Deactivate all
the controls before connecting or disconnecting from the electrical socket.
•
Do not pull or transport the machine by the cable, do not use the cable as a handle, do not close
a door on the cable, and do not pull the cable around sharp edges or corners. Do not pass the
machine over the cable. Keep the cable away from hot surfaces.
•
Be careful when cleaning on stairs.
